Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo to Play Against Arsenal Amid Transfer Interest From Man City

Despite Manchester City's plan to activate a £65 million release clause, Semenyo will play for Bournemouth this weekend, currently third in Premier League scoring with nine goals.

  • On Jan 2, 2026, Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo is set to play against Arsenal on Saturday despite advanced talks with Manchester City, with Iraola confirming, 'Antoine is going to play, yes.'
  • Manchester City are in advanced talks to sign Antoine Semenyo and hope to wrap up a deal early in the January window, with further meetings planned this week.
  • Semenyo's nine goals this season place him among the league leaders, ranking third behind Erling Haaland and Brentford's Igor Thiago.
  • Iraola acknowledged ongoing conversations and admitted uncertainty, saying there is nothing signed and he hopes Antoine Semenyo can stay longer at Bournemouth.
  • Semenyo can leave for 65 million before Jan. 10, a $87.6m fee that would bolster Pep Guardiola's Manchester City if completed early in the window.
